Miss USA Tara Conner not dethroned. Going to rehab.

Yes, I am supposed to be on vacation, but I just could not hold back on this news. This New York Post headline  makes me chuckle. Donald Trump has decided to not fire Tara Conner in her role as Miss USA because he is such a kind hearted guy who believes in second chances. NY City is such a soul sucking place that a sweet girl from a small town in Kentucky with a shiny tiara on her head doesn't stand a chance against the New York debauchery of sex, drugs, and booze. So, instead of getting ousted, Donald, the Softie, agreed to let Tara keep her twinkly tiara if she agreed to go to rehab.

That's right folks. Our Miss USA, the symbol of beauty, grace, and style of our country is going to rehab with that sparkly tiara. Can't you just smell the hypocrisy? Hmmmm! It's a tasty whiff of irony mixed with disillusion. But see, pretty girls can get away with things that you and I would never be able to in our reality.

Am I some cold hearted judgmental biatch? You bet I am on this topic because beauty pageants are just asinine in the first place. The whole idea that women prance around a stage so that others can judge her on her perfection, her ability to fit society's ideal image of beauty, her virtue, is just ridiculous. The whole pageant thing is fake, and give me a break on "it's a way for girls to get scholarship money for college" crap.

Yes, people make mistakes and are human, but this girl is representing something that is so incredibly dependent on perfection and wholesomeness. I mean say it out loud, "Miss USA is going to rehab." Not a dethroned queen, but an active reigning beauty queen is going to rehab. Say it again, and your head starts to shake.

I watched the video clips of the press conference where Donald Trump and Tara Conner made their statements, and I'm telling you there is going to be a spoof on Saturday Night Live before we ring in the New Year. Watching Tara blubber and go on about how she is not going to let The Donald down again just made me feel.....Well, you watch, and you decide. First Donald:

and now Tara's turn:
